Andrea Messimer

There are people in this world who change the lives of everyone they meet. They have a certain indescribable magic. Andrea Messimer Henley was one of those remarkable people.

Andrea was an amazing human being - A cheerleader for her friends and her family. An entrepreneur. She lit up every room she walked into with her passion, her humor, her energy, her beauty, and her endless love.

Andrea was the cool kid who invited you to sit at her table and introduced you to everyone, completely short-circuiting the typical new kid hazing ritual altogether.

Not only an expert in personal relationships, Andrea was a legend professionally. She was a self-made icon in the out-of-home advertising industry, having worked at numerous companies such as Wilkins Media, LED Truck Media, Circle Graphics, OUTFRONT Media, Clear Channel Outdoor, and Adams Outdoor.

It is hard to find someone in the industry that hasn’t been impacted by this titan, entrepreneur, mother, and friend and together we mourn the loss of Andrea Henley.

Andrea’s daughter, Emma, was her pride and joy. Emma is a lovely, gifted, talented, kind young woman who is a sophomore at University of Alabama. Nothing would have made Andrea happier than knowing that Emma graduated without debt and had a good start on her bright and promising future.

Please consider contributing to making sure that Andrea’s dreams for her daughter come true.
